                The end of proprietary programs may be upon us, and a project ends and goes proprietary. Ubuntu surprises us with changes to Grub, Qualcomm is making moves in the Linux space, but the Radxa Raspberry Pi killer has a software shortcoming. Huawei has an expirimental filesystem, Google is looking to Kage kernel drivers, and more! For tips we have pcguage for a quick heads up on system stats, mokutil for managing system secure boot certs, and the Adafruit Arcade Bonnet for building an arcade on a Raspberry Pi. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/4jhiE5N and have a great week!

                  What's actually inside an AI model? Mikah Sargent opens up the file from last week's episode and finds tokens, billions of numbers, and one surprisingly simple job: guess the next piece of text. Along the way, he shows why the same question can get a different answer every time, where all those numbers came from, and why a chatbot can sound completely sure of itself and still be wrong.

                  • Tech News Weekly 458: Congress Takes Aim at Flock

                    Amanda Silberling joins Mikah Sargent on this week's episode of Tech News Weekly! Common Sense Media labels ChatGPT for Teens as an "unacceptable risk." AI agents from companies such as Meta and OpenAI are "cute washing" to make them feel friendlier. A federal judge ruled a Flock license plate search unconstitutional. And organs-on-chips, simulations, and AI models are starting to replace animal testing.

                  • Amanda talks about Common Sense Media's labeling of ChatGPT for Teens as an "unacceptable risk", as its friend-like design, engagement incentives, and rarely appearing "take a break" prompts can keep teens talking to a chatbot instead of a trusted adult.
                  • Mikah shares an article from Fast Company's Grace Snelling, who coined the term "cute washing" for how SpaceX AI's Grokbot, Meta's Muse, and OpenAI's Dot all use big eyes and soft shapes to make autonomous AI agents feel friendly.
                  • Jason Koebler of 404 Media joins the show to discuss the first federal ruling to call an automated license plate reader search unconstitutional, and explains how Flock's network of more than 100,000 cameras feeds federal programs like HIDTA (High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area).
                  • And Mikah explains how organs-on-chips, computer simulations, and AI models are beginning to replace animal testing as regulators like the FDA shift their rules, as noted by IEEE Spectrum's Brandon Kim.
